The Grind

Aerosmith · Honkin On Bobo [2004]

I never thought a first time love would ever last

How could a kiss like that knock me flat on my ass



Heh ha..



The burning bed

The roses dead

And now I'm dancing with myself



Yeah I'm missing you

Just like you want me to

You made me trip into the grind

Now I can't get you off of my mi-i-i-i-ind



Yeah... your sweet talking hip shaking wobblin gonna blow a man away

Kiss butt... and guess what

Even double crossin' dogs have their day... ha

So forget about... regret about... ya i ain't afraid to say



Yeah I'm missing you

Just like you want me to

You made me trip into the grind

Now I can't get you off...



And the more I try

Leads to the same old lie

You made me slip into the grind

Now I can't get you off of the cloud we was on

And now it's all gone

Tell me why... why... why... why...

Why ain't I getting thorugh

Ain't no lie that i wont do..



Tell me was it good... for you



Tell me what you want



Yeah cause I'm missing you

Just like you knew I'd do

You made me trip into the grind

Now I can't get you off...

And the more I tried

Leads to the same old lie

You made me trip into the grind

Now I can't... get...you..yeah

Get you...

Get you...

Get you...

Get you...

Get you...

Get' you...

Get' you...



Off of my mind...
